Special Cable Dispatch to THE EVENING STAR.
LONDON, Dec. 24-The great question OF the day
In artistic circles here is Do actors really feel
emotions, or only depict Them? The question is
not new. The theme is treated In Diderots para
dox about actors, wherein he decided they must
keep quite calm personally, and not allow them
selves to be carried away with sensibility like their
audience. william Archer, one OF the youngest
ana most acute dramatic critics, who writes for
the World, of this city, has catechized actors and
actresses with a view to settling the question.
Among those who answer are Mary Anderson and
Kate Bateman. Miss Anderson says she often
weeps and laughs in solitude at home
over the parts she has to learn And
Miss Bateman says that real tears come into
her eyes in the great scene In 'Leah," her
most famous performance. Miss Bateman has not

The Day Before Christmas.
LIVELY STREET SCENES IN WASHINGTON.

The usual day efore-Christmas crowd was on
the street to-day. Men and women with bundles,
little boys with tin horns and nags over their
shoulders men with balloons others with paper
flowers, and still others with mistletoe and pea
cock feathers. crowded and Jostled each other
along the pavements, while In some places people
in q hurry were walking IN the carriage waya The
candy and peanut man and the man with "Flortda
oranges, 25 cents" were stationed at the corners
with their carts The men with "sweet lavender
and the men with plush monkeys on poles and
'turtles that crawl" ana whistles that sing
like BIRDS" and all sorts Of tricks and
tr1nkets, were strung along the curb where the
people passed most. People who had money and
did not know what to buy were lingering In the
stores, and those who knew what they wanted, but
had no money, looked longingiy into the pretty
windows which every moment were being stripped
OF some OF their beauty.
Some Of the stores had sold nearly everything
out OF their windows before the day was half over.
Everybody seemed to have some "last thing" to
buy and nearly all carried bundleA Belated ex-
press boxes were born hurriedly 70 the express
once on the shoulders Of big men, and women
even struggled under the weight OF heavy boxes
A good natured Christmas crowd was on the street
anday.
